Thanks for the reply, but I am looking for a little more info, my initial question was way to vague, and written completely from frustration. I currently have a system that works, well kinda. It works with the users aliases, but I also have domains that need to be aliases.So, I am trying to get one of the following scenerios to work. recipient_canonical_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/canonical_maps.cf Or by just aliasing the domains somehow.
Well, I've done some similar thing: I have two domains - domain1.ru and domain2.ru. When I add a user, I never write a domain for him/her to the database, in fact DBMail doesn't even know what domains I have.
For example, user1 has alias user1 - and that's all.I use Exim, and I have a domain list, where I place the domains for which I recieve mail - domain1.ru and domain2.ru.
(only this list in fact knows about my domains ;-) )So, when the message is for somebody from any of these domains, it is ready to be accepted. As you remember, the aliases do not contain a domain, so Exim just searches for $local_part (everything before "@") in the aliases table, and if there is an alias, such message is accepted.
Users log in as just <username>, without any <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.I've done it like this, because I am neither an ISP, nore a virtual hoster; I have just two domains, for which I have to accept mail. And also because in practically any other case for my situation I should have had two aliases for each user - [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] If any one of them is missing, the user wouldn't get his mail to the missing domain. Also, if I have another domain with the same users, I just add it to Exim's config - and that's all.
So [EMAIL PROTECTED] can receive e-mail at matt.foo.bar.uk too.
You can just try to add an alias for him ;-) (and, sure, have the mail for foo.bar.uk go through your MTA) And search the dbmail_aliases table to find out whether to accept mail for this address or not. At the same time, the username can be just `matt', and he'll get mail for all his aliases.
